Doña Leti's Restaurant & Bar

Had our 1st meal in Houston at Doña Leti's and we were not disappointed. Everything was ordered was amazing... and enormous!! I had a spicy watermelon margarita that was delicious, my friend enjoyed a berry lemon drop. We ordered the surf and turf eggroll appetizer and could have stopped there. The eggrolls were incredible, must-order item. We couldn't finish them. Then entrees came and we literally took one bite before needing a to-go box. The sizzling burrito must weigh 5 lbs, and it still came with rice and beans on the side. My friend loved the quesabirria tacos. Our server, Liz, was the best!! So sweet, helpful, attentive, and welcoming! We'll definitely be back.

TL;DR it’s a great restaurant deep rooted in tradition that delivers great food if you’re patient enough. Idk what they did to me but soy hablo español desde que comí aquí esta noche. Let me tell you, the portions are BIG. And this is coming from someone who has eaten way too much food in one sitting on multiple occassions😂 Got a chicken taco plate- safe to say I’ve never had such delicious chicken anywhere else. The burrito needs to be handled with two hands at all times because it’s that heavy and loaded. The tortas are peak ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 One thing I hope to experience differently is the wait time- being a small and popular place, they are always packed. We had a 45 minute wait on a Wednesday evening which may be a turn off for some people but the food compensates fully & then some.

We had an amazing experience from start to finish! The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Everything came out fresh and perfectly cooked. Our waiter, Adriana, truly made the experience exceptional. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she brought such a warm, welcoming energy to our table. Great food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere we’ll definitely be back and will be asking for Adriana again!

After seeing this restaurant advertised I finally got the chance to go here for my birthday. And boy did I have a time! The food was A1. The portions were enormous. The drinks were superb. The price was not bad at all considering how much u get. They gave me a celebratory shot on the house to celebrate my birthday. The atmosphere was great. Our server was still training but she was extremely nice, offered suggestions and was very helpful to us. She did a great job. Can't say enough about this place and my experience. It was wonderful and I'll definitely be back!

Ate at Doña Leti’s on I-10 and was seriously impressed. I had the pastor wings and a beef gordita, and the food was absolutely amazing. As a former chef, I really appreciate when something stands out and feels genuinely different and this place delivered. The gordita was huge, made with homemade corn, and the beef had a deep smoky flavor like it was cooked in the backyard over mesquite. It came with grilled onions and a grilled jalapeño, which took it to another level. The pastor wings were surprisingly delicious, served over fries with a beautifully balanced sauce of guajillo and ancho chiles, thinly sliced pineapple, and cilantro. Sweet, smoky, and savory all at once. The salsa was good, though I think it would be even better served warm. Service was excellent. I sat at the bar and Brittany took great care of me. It was also really cool to see the owner and his wife working in the kitchen, you don’t see that much these days. I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend.
